I’m currently working as a Graduate Engineer but have been looking for a better opportunity without much luck. I started wondering if my resume was the issue, so I submitted it for review.To my surprise, Patrick’s feedback has been incredibly insightful, confirming that my resume is good enough and that I don’t need to pay for a new one.I’m really impressed with the honesty and professionalism offered—awesome work, mate!

If your experience was like mine, your resume will likely be thrown in the bin before the HR manager reads it.- Formatting of the resume looked like a website from the 90's. Too many fonts and too much text. His website is the same, way below the standard that is expected these days.- He took a standard approach to resume writing (getting your personal statement up front), but then screwed up all the details (unnecessary fluff, too many buzz words, too generic).- He didn't take the time to understand me, the role, or the areas that separate me from the competition.Just google it and look for a guide that starts with your personal statement (who you are/why you're valuable), lists jobs starting with the most recent, and lists big achievements (about 1 per year of work).

Patrick was amazing from start to end of my resume makeover.

Patrick Harnett at "Resumes for Dudes" first did my Resume' and Cover Letter in Early 2018. I immediately began to get work with Teir 1 companies from then till now. As an Electronics and Communication Technician I needed someone who could understand my technical field of work and craft a resume' to reach my target employers. They have done this. I have full confidence in Resumes for Dudes to represent me, with excellence, to prospective employers.

Chose to use this resume service based on all the good reviews I read. Paid over $379 dollars for resume and cover letter. I originally talked with Patrick then was assigned another resume writer. I was concerned that my resume was a bit tricky and asked for a face to face interview to make sure they could get an understanding of my needs. Patrick assured me they could get all the information via phone call. I provided my last resume I had written for me ( which was terrible) and had a brief telephone conversation with my assigned resume writer. She then proceeded and wrote a first draft for me. The draft was so terribly written, hard to follow , spelling errors bad grammar. The draft was worse than the original , they were so far off the mark that in the end I got my partner to do for me ( I got offered the first job I applied for with the resume my partner wrote for me)In the end Resume for Dudes charged me $379 for a poorly written draft that probaly took them less than an hour to do. I emailed them to tell them I wasn't happy with draft.They have never called me or followed up on why I stopped at the draft point but were happy to take my money. Worst $379 I have ever spent

I've never used a professional resume writer before but after using Patrick I can 100% say I definitely needed it! The difference between my old "run of the mill' resume and the one I received from Patrick is like Chalk and Cheese!I'm very happy with the results and the timely manner, from my initial enquiry through to completion, that Patrick has responded to any communications I had with him.I would 100% recommend him to anyone else and use him again in the future.

Very impressed with the level of service I received from Pat: my resume was initially 7 pages with info added in over my years of work .Pat responded promptly to my request for an up to date revamp of my tired old resume. He called on Friday afternoon to discuss what he could offer while gathering the info required from myself, True to his word the draft was in my inbox Monday afternoon 1 or 2 tiny changes done immediately by Pat and my cover letter and resume where both finalised and on there way to get me a job.Polite,thorough,efficient and all at great price Cheers Pat

I was privileged to use Patrick's services twice in my career journey. The first time when I was desperately applying for jobs with no satisfactory result and the other one just recently since I launched my small consultancy business.Patrick is a great listener and open to new ideas and comments to assist his customers to achieve their goals. He provides you with a free health check on your CV. Then, you get to have a 15 minutes phone interview with him, following with his constructive feedback on your CV, LinkedIn, and Cover Letter. He generally charges reasonable amount for his services.No matter whether you are an immigrant or English is your mother tongue language, you should definitely consider using Patrick's services if you intend to climb up the ladder in your organization or land a better job.

I recently moved to Australia from the United States. I’m wanting to get into the mining industry but was struggling a bit to translate my work experience into a resume focused on said industry. After researching and speaking with a few different resumes services I found Patrick. He was personable, prompt to respond and genuinely engaged when speaking on the phone about my situation. I’m extremely pleased with how my resume turned out and the timely manner in which it was delivered. I highly recommend this service.

I was that, "and by the way can you.." guy. Patrick was patient and precise. I requested 1 resume, and two 2 separate cover letters. The documents have been completed to such a high quality or I can say is money well spent.

Nim B.

03:00 19 Jun 23

Amazing service. Pat and Paula have made me feel more confident about an approach to write a resume. I really found the 'health check' very useful because it has allowed me to tailor further resumes for submission. They have also given me brilliant advice to coping with job application wait times.I can't wait to hear back about the resume and will reupdate the post when I get the final version of the resume.Edited: Two companies have called me for an interview within 12-24hrs of viewing the resume - this is brilliant and i have tried so many different templates, to no avail.

Well worth the the investment to utilise Patrick`s services . He is a top operator who delivers on his promise. Cant speak highly enough of my experience in dealing with Patrick and highly recommend his services to everyone in the job market

Andy C.

09:30 05 Jan 23

I needed my CV updated urgently. I was not expecting a call from a potential employer at all. My CV hadn’t been updated for 2 years, I got straight in touch with Patrick, had a ten minute call explained my predicament that I needed my CV updated ASAP, he told me he had an express service and I got it back the next day less than 24 hours later and absolutely perfect and spot on. I could not be more grateful and appreciative of Patrick’s service as he had to juggle around a few meetings and rescheduled a few other things to get my CV back to me as the recruiter needed it by midday.Couldn’t recommend Patrick any higher. Great service and top bloke to speak to also.Will definitely be a return client.

Kashif K.

07:10 16 Dec 22

Patrick, Thank you for your fantastic service. I needed clarification and took a long time to think I should hire someone to update my stuff. Is it worth it to spend a considerable amount of money? I googled and found a list of people who are into this business, and I chose you because of your Google reviews and rating. You were excellent throughout the process and have done an outstanding job. My resume, cover letter, and LinkedIn profile now look powerful and alive. I recommend you to my friends and family circle. You are not only running your business, but you are also helping people to succeed in their careers. I wish you all the best in the growth of your business. I will be in touch with you. Merry Christmas.
